A crazed gunman who believed he was Jesus Christ pulled out a revolver and opened fire outside the White House Saturday night, before he was quickly taken down by a barrage of shots from the Secret Service, sources said. Nasire Best, 21, fired at a checkpoint at about 6:10 p.m. after being seen pacing in a strange manner up and down 17th St. Northwest, sources told The Post. He only got off a few shots before he was shot and killed in a hail of bullets from federal officers. At least one bystander was hit and seriously wounded in the fusillade, the sources said.

Firefighters on Saturday were trying to cool a chemical tank “literally on the edge” of exploding in Southern California as they worked to avert a disastrous “worst-case” scenario, the incident’s commander said. The 7,000-gallon tank containing methyl methacrylate, a toxic chemical used to manufacture resins and plastics, could also then set off an explosion in a 15,000-gallon tank nearby that holds the same substance, Chief Craig Covey, the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) incident commander, told NBC News on Saturday.
While the international community says it champions democracy, stability, and self-determination, Somaliland ticks every box. Yet it stays unrecognized, largely because diplomats cling to the fiction of Somalia's territorial integrity — even though that unity exists only on paper. This is not principle at work. It is bureaucratic inertia. It has become a costly strategic error.
Denying recognition sends exactly the wrong signal: that building a functioning democracy in hard conditions earns you nothing.
What are these Wall Street titans afraid of, exactly?
Jamie Dimon and David Solomon — maybe the two most powerful bankers in New York — are invariably described as “tough,” “no nonsense” and “hard-charging.”
Yet when they each met up last week with the city’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, you’d think they had just toured a rose garden with Xi Jinping.
Dimon and Mamdani held a “friendly” and “constructive dialogue” on Monday, a JPMorgan source told me.
The pair chatted about the need for “public-private partnerships.”
A few hours later at Gracie Mansion, an insider told me that Solomon, the CEO of Goldman Sachs, visited the mayor,

President Donald Trump appears well positioned to break the old guard of Senate Republicans in the growing row over legislative priorities – as key allies of Senate Majority Leader John Thune either retire or possibly lose the primaries.
For months, the Senate has faced considerable pressure from Trump and his allies to pass the Save America Act, a marquis voter ID bill, a proposition that Thune and the senior conference leadership have rejected. Thune has also kept Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, whom Trump wants removed because she has not allowed key parts of the president's agenda —
EU leaders now preaching 'strategic autonomy,'

as future remains tied to unpredictable Putin 4 replies
“Strategic autonomy” has been an increasingly frequent buzz phrase among European Union leaders, guiding member states to increase defense spending, double down on support for Ukraine, and stay out of the Israel and U.S.-led conflict with Iran.
Now the concept is being put to the test by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s threats against the Baltic States.
In recent days, Putin said that membership in NATO “will not protect” Baltic states – Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia – that may be aiding Ukraine by hosting its military drones, something Russia accuses Latvia of doing. All three countries are members of the European Union that border Russian territory.

The United States government on Friday banned lawful permanent residents from entering the U.S. from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda or South Sudan due to Ebola concerns.
The ban covers those returning from travel during the previous 21 days.
U.S. citizens, nationals and green card holders were previously exempt from a 30-day ban, but Reuters reported that the CDC decided to extend the ban to green card holders to stop the virus from entering the country.
Travelers using medical marijuana should note a policy change from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) ahead of the busy summer travel season.
The TSA updated its guidance to list medical marijuana as permitted in both carry-on and checked baggage, subject to special instructions.
The update, reflected on the TSA’s official “What Can I Bring?” page last updated April 27, 2026, aligns with federal actions reclassifying certain FDA-approved marijuana products and state-licensed medical marijuana to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act.
Federal authorities announced criminal charges Thursday against 15 defendants in Minnesota accused of participating in health care fraud schemes involving more than $90 million in intended losses, including what prosecutors described as the largest Medicaid autism fraud case ever charged by the Justice Department.
The cases involve alleged fraud tied to multiple Medicaid-funded programs, including services for children with autism, housing assistance, disability support, and child care subsidies. The Justice Department said the investigation also prompted a nationwide expansion of its Health Care Fraud Section, including funding for 15 new trial attorney positions focused on Medicaid fraud enforcement.
The Trump administration said Friday that people with temporary visas seeking to adjust their immigration status to obtain green cards must return to their home countries to “do so through consular processing,” in a major change from current practice. “From now on, an alien who is in the U.S. temporarily and wants a Green Card must return to their home country to apply, except in extraordinary circumstances,” U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services spokesperson Zach Kahler said in a statement. “When aliens apply from their home country,

Massie Won’t Rule Out 2028 Presidential Run
31 replies
Republican Representative Thomas Massie signaled Sunday that his national political career may extend well beyond his upcoming departure from Congress, refusing to rule out a potential 2028 presidential bid following his recent primary defeat. Speaking on NBC News’ Meet the Press, the libertarian-leaning lawmaker declined to commit to specific future plans but left the door open to a White House run when pressed about speculation among his supporters. “I will not rule out anything, and right now I’m not going to rule in anything,” Massie told moderator Kristen Welker, adding that he plans to take time before deciding his next

In the most stunning revelation since it was confirmed Liberace liked the dudes, Bill Kristol — neocon, publisher, and one-time Republican operative extraordinaire — has announced he’s now a Democrat.
Kristol is best known both for his punditry in print and on various cable news hits, as well as publishing The Weekly Standard, long known as one of the pillars of the conservative establishment.
However, while the conservative establishment generally didn’t like Donald Trump as he became a serious candidate during the 2016 cycle, Kristol had an anaphylactic reaction to suddenly being displaced by the populist rabble. Fast-forward 10 years and the professional NeverTrumper has become yet another professional mouthpiece

Somewhere in Tallahassee, Ron DeSantis is probably grinning ear to ear as Florida Democrats descend into yet another round of intraparty warfare.
The fireworks are happening in the Sunshine State’s 20th Congressional District, and it is all thanks to none other than Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the former Democrat National Committee chair who managed to make nearly everyone angry, including her own party’s activists. Florida Republicans drew a new congressional map earlier this year under DeSantis’s leadership, leaving most Democrats fuming while conservatives celebrated a fairer representation of the state’s red shift.
The GOP already controls twenty of the twenty eight congressional seats, but the updated map could hand them several more.
Iran has reportedly agreed to give up its stockpile of enriched uranium as part of the deal announced by President Trump Saturday.
Tehran has agreed to a statement pledging to relinquish its cache of highly enriched uranium — believed to be enough to build 11 nuclear bombs — the New York Times reported, citing two American officials. The disposal of the highly enriched uranium, which Trump refers to as “nuclear dust” was a major sticking point in negotiations between the United States and the Islamic Republic. While Iran fought to address the status of its nuclear stockpile after an agreement to end the war had been reached,
Socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is touting his dreams for universal child care and announcing programs for children as young as 2 years old.
I want to also shout outs to something that we did a few days earlier, which is make an announcement that we are extending 100,000 offers of pre-k and 3k to New Yorkers across the five boroughs,” Mamdani said. This was part of our announcement that we were adding 2,000 new 3k seats. Now, as part of these invitations that we are sending out to children across the city to be a part of this program to their parents,
A video began circulating Thursday of a guest speaker at the Islamic Center of Passaic County in Paterson, New Jersey (ICPC-Paterson), Osama Abu Irshaid of American Muslims for Palestine, that every American, including President Donald Trump, should watch, watch again, and study. Its implications for the American political scene are massive, but few, if any, will take heed of them.
The video comes from a Jan. 16, 2026 event at ICPC-Paterson, “The Night Journey & Cultivating Hope,” a commemoration of the Islamic legend of Muhammad being carried to Jerusalem on a winged white horse with a human head, which constitutes the entirety of the Islamic claim to Jerusalem
Multiple reports have indicated that U.S. negotiators believe that Iran has committed to giving up its nuclear ambitions and its highly enriched uranium as a part of a broader peace deal with President Donald Trump.
On Saturday afternoon, President Trump announced that an “agreement has been largely negotiated” between Washington and Tehran. However, Mr Trump said that the final details of the deal were still being discussed and would not be made public at the time.
According to a report from the New York Times, citing “two U.S. officials”, the Islamist regime in Iran verbally agreed to U.S. negotiators that it would give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
At least 19 people were injured when a stampede broke out at a South Carolina beach early Sunday morning, according to officials.
Horry County Fire Rescue officials said a “reported stampede incident” took place just after 1 a.m. near the stage area in Atlantic Beach in South Carolina, 13 miles north of Myrtle Beach.
Nineteen people were evaluated for injuries, which were deemed non-life-threatening. Three others were transported to local hospitals. Officials haven’t ruled out the possibility of additional victims who weren’t checked by first responders.[snip] Atlantic Beach is currently hosting the annual Atlantic Beach Memorial Day Black Pearl Cultural Heritage and Bike Festival
John F. Kennedy wrote his Pulitzer Prize–winning tome "Profiles in Courage" in 1956, wherein he discussed eight U.S. senators who took brave stands despite political risks. They believed it was the right thing to do.
If the book is ever updated, it's unlikely former President Joe Biden would be included. He recently told his former chief of staff, Ron Klain, that he has made his decision on endorsing a candidate in one of the most pivotal election battles in the nation — the gubernatorial race in the union’s most populous state, California.
His answer? Nobody.

BrianStelter just posted an amazing photograph of The Late Show’s staff, showing that there were roughly 140-160 people on the Colbert payroll. (I didn’t count heads; that’s ChatGPT’s estimate.) Aside from the fact that this is an amazingly large number for a show where a guy cracks a few (bad) jokes, talks to some celebrity guests, and loses CBS $40 million a year, there’s something striking about the photo: Brian Stelter is thrilled, for reasons that are unclear, but I find it fascinating. That’s because this bastion of Democrat politics, where one would expect to find a huge quota of
U.S. intelligence shows that Iran's supreme leader is effectively holed up in an undisclosed location with little access to the outside world and is only reached by a labyrinth of couriers, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter.
The Iranian officials authorized to work with the Trump administration have been having a difficult time communicating inside of their own government system — and it's a central reason why the details of a potential deal with Iran and past agreements have been slow to emerge.
When the U.S. sends proposed details, the difficulty in reaching the supreme leader means there can be a long delay
